New Apple Smart Home Devices Expected
Gurman has released a new Power On newsletter and we have now learned that Apple is planning both a new HomePod and a HomePod mini model. Although, the standard HomePod has better chances of getting launched, possibly next year.
The new HomePod, codenamed “B620” is expected to be powered by the S8 chip, which may also be seen on the upcoming Watch Series 8. While design and audio performance will be akin to the now-discontinued HomePod, there can be improvements in the display section (a multi-touch functionality is expected), along with more feature additions.
As for the purported HomePod mini, we can expect some performance improvements but nothing is clear at the moment.
One of these two is expected to launch either next year of early 2024. Although, there are chances that not all of the aforementioned products will see the light of the day. Since the details aren’t concrete, we will have to wait for more information to get a better idea of Apple’s plans. Whenever this happens, we won’t forget to tell you. So, stay tuned and do tell us how would you like new Apple smart home devices in the comments below.
